Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates effective strain and damage sensing in recycled fiber composites, suggesting environmental benefits.

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a recycled fiber composite with effective piezoresistive properties for monitoring strain and damage.
  • Recovered basalt fiber fabrics using solvolysis and hydrogen peroxide.
  • Spray-coated fabrics with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) for improved electrical characteristics.
  • Manufactured recycled basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP-CNT) through vacuum assisted resin infusion technique and conducted electromechanical flexural testing.
  • Achieved a notable reduction in electrical resistance to 22.5 kΩ after MWCNT coating.
  • Displayed a gauge factor of 7.31 on the tensile side and −1.01 on the compressive side during testing.
  • Confirmed the composite's ability to sense stress-strain changes up to failure.
